Magic (Attribute)

Magic is a character attribute in Diablo I that increases the amount of damage done by most spells, increases Mana pool, and allows learn more advanced spells (as well as using more powerful scrolls and staves).

Each spell has minimum requirements, and each spell level demands 20% more than the previous, up to a maximum of 255. Only Sorcerers can get that much without help of items.

Magic is learned by all character classes and is used most often than combat. Magic can be increased by
equipping items, or upgrading character level.

A Barbarian has their base Magic locked at 0, but can get more from equipment.
